<h1>ORSCA CONTINGENCY PROGRAM</h1>

<p style="padding-left:25px; padding-right:25px; font-size: 17px; font-family: arial;">A contingency sponsorship program is an advertisement program like no other. A sponsorship program where the racer purchases your product or service before
they are elegible for your sponsorship dollars. On top of that, the racer advertises your company or brand on their vehicle throughout the event and you only
pay them if they are a winner or runner-up. Contingency sponsorship is an incentive program of sorts. One where you're not only exposing thousands of potential
customers to your company or brand but you're ensuring that racers have an even greater reason to purchase your products or services.</p>

<p style="padding-left:25px; padding-right:25px; font-size: 17px; font-family: arial;">Let us face it, you will not find a racer that thinks they are going to lose on any given weekend. Each and every racer believes that he or she can win and they are right.
On any given weekend anyone can win a drag race. With the right performance parts and tuning a racer can set themselves up to have that little edge. Remember, what is fast on
Sunday sells on Monday.</p>

<p style="padding-left:25px; padding-right:25px; font-size: 17px; font-family: arial;">So how does this contingency program work? There is a list of criteria a racer must meet in order to receive any monetary compensation.</p>

<ul>
<li>Competitors must first purchase the nominated product or service and be actively using the product or service before they are eligible for your contingency rewards.</li>
<li>Your company or product decal must be displayed in an easy to view position on the race car.</li>
<li>Sponsors may include special requirekents such as proof of purchase, serial numbers, etc.</li>
<li>Any competitor found falsly claiming product use or applying decals after start of the event will forfeit all contingency rewards for said event.</li>
<li>Competitors must be a member of the Outlaw Racing Street Car Association to be eligible for prizes.</li>
<li>Contigency rewards are limited only to finishers designated by sponsor. (EX: winner and runner-up)</li>
<li>ORSCA will inspect all contingency winning cars for proper sticker placement, part receipt, etc.</li>
</ul>


<br /><br /><br />
<h1>SPONSOR WILL RECEIVE THE FOLLOWING</h1>

<ul>
<li>Company or product banner along race wall.</li>
<li>PA Announcements promoting your company and/or products.</li>
<li>All promos will have sponsoring company's logo (ex: t-shirts, flyers, etc.)</li>
<li>ORSCA will post all results for contingency payouts along with sponsor mention.</li>
<li>All sponsored cars will run your logo.</li>
<li>ORSCA will examine all cars making sure all criteria is met for competitor eligibility</li>
</ul>

at the bottom of that script...you use $_POST[index] (where index is several different values) in your form. those keys in the array don't exist. 'proper' coding says you should check for the value before you try to echo it. but, i find it silly. just adjust your error reporting to not include NOTICE (this is actually PHP's default).

in your php.ini, find the 'error_reporting' setting and set it to:

error_reporting  =  E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE

aebstract · December 17, 2008

okay so it really isn't that big of a deal then? moving on... the email is not being sent, is there a reason in this code for that? it seems like it should work to me :/

im still a php noob.. but this is what i think is wrong

aebstract · December 17, 2008

you're saying you think that is why the email won't send? i don't think so.

justinh · December 17, 2008

no that was for your index error

trq · December 17, 2008

find it silly. just adjust your error reporting to not include NOTICE (this is actually PHP's default).

You might find it silly, but its actually just as easy to fix the problem and let your php be parsed as efficiently and correctly as possible.

All you would need to do for instance is change a line like this....

<input type=\"text\" maxlength=\"20\" class=\"textfield2\" name=\"email\" value=\"".$_POST['email']."\" size=\"30\" />

to....

<input type=\"text\" maxlength=\"20\" class=\"textfield2\" name=\"email\" value=\"" . isset($_POST['email']) ? $_POST['email'] : '' . "\" size=\"30\" />

rhodesa · December 17, 2008

anyways...moving on from the notice stuff...

have you tested your mail() config with a simple email test? create a php file and put in it:

mail('aebstract@gmail.com','Test Subject','Test Message');

let me know if that works

aebstract · December 18, 2008

hmm, I put this in a file:

<?php
mail('aebstract@gmail.com','Test Subject','Test Message');
?>

just as you said, checked my logs and don't have any errors and haven't received an email.

rhodesa · December 18, 2008

ok...so mail() isn't configured properly...

Is this a personal webserver you set up or something with a hosting service?

What OS is the webserver running?

aebstract · December 18, 2008

It's a hosted service, and I've had customers going to the website for a long time now and using the contact form, which we receive email from. (Just tested it and it went through almost immediately)

aebstract · December 18, 2008

premiso · December 18, 2008

It's a hosted service, and I've had customers going to the website for a long time now and using the contact form, which we receive email from. (Just tested it and it went through almost immediately)

If it works, than what is the issue?

aebstract · December 18, 2008

The new script I have been working on won't send mail.. that's the issue. That and I made a file "mail.php" with just the mail function as he told me to do, and it didn't send a thing.

premiso · December 18, 2008

What is different about the new script from the old script?

Does it have headers? Are you testing this on the same machine or your local machine?

aebstract · December 18, 2008

I don't really see a difference and I mainly copied the main part of the mail function from it so I don't see why it doesn't work. I can try redoing the thing to make sure but I don't know :/

edit:

heres my contact form on the main website:

<?php



if (isset ($_POST['submit'])) {

if (empty ($_POST['firstname'])) {
$problem = TRUE;
$error .= 'Your firstname is a required field!<br />';
}







	if (!$problem) {

The main difference I see is the email.

Are you sure your GMail account is not setup to trash/send the message to spam? Add the from domain to your safelist. I would also try it with a different email and see.

Just to make sure, you are running this script on the same server, right? And not your local one...

aebstract · December 18, 2008

The same, and looky.. to my spam it goes >.< sorry! Thanks for suggesting that.
